Not too long ago, we reported of the concerns that Nigeria’s elephant population is fast depleting after local hunters shot dead a 4th elephant in Ogun State.
It was reported that the elephant was killed near Omo forest in Ogun State. According to the Elephant Protection Initiative, this is the 4th elephant illegally killed in two years.
Sharing photos of the recently killed wild animal, they wrote on their page,
